@John : There is no such thing as a horse which is hard to control. It is always a lack of good horsemanship.
So why not keep practising at home ( with those more friendly bits or riding by neck pressure) instead of taking them on shows already.
Why the rush?
You as a human can decide when you're at your limit or stop when you're in pain or discomfort .
The horse has no choise...so please take a closer look at your equipment and riding abbillities before you use an animal for your own benefits.
